@Hardisohi@adgpi If veteran has a voter card its fairly straightforward. I just completed this in Karnataka. Submit enumeration form along with a copy of passport to the BLO . There are many docu which can be submitted instead of passport.
@Captain_Mani72 Sir, Proud of your service to both the organizations.
It needs different kind of dedication to join TA while working full time in senior position in the government.
Jai Hind.
Dear Good people of twitter, here is a soldier who needs help.

27 yrs of Op Vijay victory.
527 lost life
1363 got injured in the service of the Nation.
Q is ...
How many of them are actually known to us?
What are the challenges they may be facing now?
Fact is, hardly a few.
Happy Vijay Diwas 🇮🇳
🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now.
The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left.
Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops.
If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time.
The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy.
They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand.
The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker.
The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.
It’s a deep, very complex subject though everyone thinks it’s very easy to understand.
STRESS of Mil Service has several layers n can’t b fathomed by those who think they know everything coz they reached top positions by beating the system. @adgpi shud start respecting their own
@Ambreenzaidi The right approach should have been to ensure that every disabled soldier is offered assured retention and promotion like every govt department under RPwD. The combatant can be accommodated against non combatant vacancies of central govt. 1/2
@BrigMahalingam While this matter is being considered, the main focus should be on modified RPwD act for services . No impact on promotion and No boarding out. If required adjust against non combatant vacancies. Then there is no need of any IT exemption.
‘IF’ !!!
The whole agenda driven post started with an assumption ‘If’, that only proves the agenda propagator knows the truth is very different 👍
Indian Army @adgpi is much beyond and higher than your biases and assumptions, sir
May God bless you
Jai Hind 🇮🇳
In Bengaluru, the BBMP has been a recurring target of jokes for potholes, puddles and everything in between.
But this Durga Puja Immersion, they genuinely surprised me.
The process was smooth. Forklifts, cranes, platforms , everything was ready and running efficiently. From the time our truck reached the spot till the idols were immersed, it took less than 15 minutes.
The BBMP team and local police deserve full marks for this one.
